“When I grow up, I want to be in advertising!” Maybe you’ve thought this all along. You’ve crafted your career path to be just where you are and you know exactly where you’re going.

Or, you’re like the rest of us. Your goals have changed at various times. Your path has taken some twists and turns. The industry is also evolving as new trends and technologies emerge. How can you best position yourself for success? What does that mean – and how can you achieve it?

These answers don’t come from fortune tellers or magic eight balls – they come from entrepreneurs. As a group, entrepreneurs have developed a way to successfully navigate uncertainty. InnerVation Lab packages the insights of social science research with entrepreneurs into a unique, action-learning experience that you can apply to a career as a Creative. Through our partnership with the Shark Group, we are pleased to bring to this experience the esteemed entrepreneur Daymond John who will show you how he applied these life lessons and inspire you to incorporate them into your career journey.
